I see, I had not checked the arm64 implementation of
ptep_set_access_flags(). For context, I'm merging the arm64 contpte
support with the riscv napot support, the implementation being quite
similar (although riscv is a bit different as it uses bits from the pfn
to advertise the number of contiguous ptes).
Anyway, our implementation of ptep_set_access_flags() actually sets the
ptep with entry, so we would actually lose the cont bit. I would simply
do the following (I will in my patchset, no need for you to worry about
this):
__ptep_set_access_flags(vma, addr, ptep, pte_mkcont(entry), 0);
Let me know if you think this is not right,
